Review actions by Putnam officials

This editorial is disingenuous. Your conclusion, that "? at no juncture should it be lost ? what this drama is foremost about: what happened to a young girl three Octobers ago." Yet, the news articles have done the opposite.

Many questions need to be answered, but the focus should be divided into two forums. The Westchester D.A., as the chief criminal law enforcement officer in this particular case, should review Putnam Sheriff Donald B. Smith's investigation per normal protocol.

Also to be examined: What involvement Adam Levy had in this matter. The immediate question is: How could he not have known that Alexandru Hossu was in this country illegally, if it was common knowledge at the World Gym where he worked. To claim ignorance is laughable at best and tragic at worst.

The best way to approach this matter is through an FBI investigation since it involves the alleged violation of U.S. immigration laws.

Future news coverage should give as much attention to the rape case as to the anticipated FBI investigation.
